Bush makes a "funny"

I was over at Reality Sandwich this evening, and followed a link to Change for America and started reading their Morning News Roundup and found this apalling story about Bush's funny little slide show. Joe Drymala of Change for America says it best with this quote:

'Let me tell you, folks, nothing says "funny" like the Commander-in-Chief publicly joking about the fact that he sent over 500 American troops to their death for no good reason! Even FUNNIER is when the reason was an outright lie. Funnier than THAT is when the troops are STILL IN HARMS WAY!!!'

Yup, pretty f'n he-larious! But why stop there? Why not joke about all the jobs that have been lost since you've been in office too? That would be pretty good. Or, or, wait! No, no, wait. I know! THE WORLD TRADE CENTER! Yeah, yeah, that would be the best! You could have a funny slide of the towers burning, and you could say; Whoops! Guess I should have been paying more attention to Richard, instead of having wet dreams of bombing Iraq! Oh, yeah man. That would be awesome!

On another note, one of my favorite cunning linguists now has a blog, Noam Chomsky! The Turning Tide debuted just 2 days ago, and I'm book markin' this one. Noam is one of the minds I look to for analysis of the U.S. govt. and foreign policy. I'm excited to have hopefully daily writings close at hand.
